    Learn everything you can. So you can tell us later. :D

    Btw, are you buying a facelift?

    I would prefer the BB if I have the chance to get one!

    So if everything will be confirmed, there will not be an ''F142MFL - Pista'' so the current one is the last ''Speciale'' not hybrid produced ?

    If the F171 will be ready for 2021/2022, no time for the Pista version of the facelift, no?

    Yeah no time. Facelift will only have 2 years. Possibly 2021 Geneva or 2020 Frankfurt reveal for F171. :)

    Which current one is last? There are three Pista's - Coup, Spider and Piloti or are you grouping them into one last? No one has yet to post an additional version of Pista but the facelift is a short production run 488 chassis as well and will come after. Supposed to be faster with new interior has been posted if I'm following along correctly.

    Spotted in Amsterdam,
    Hybrid mule with low positionned exhaust
    Surely a F171 mule ( V6 hybrid )

    Could you post link to the source with pics, maybe? (I cannot see the exhaust from where I sit)
    PS. Looks like the same 488 mule has been spotted in Germany last November (license plate HN ?6573). The exhaust though was a regular one.

    Engines bay is covered to hide the new hybrid powerplant. Can't be the facelift IMO. Maybe 'Ferr9000' can explain. :D

    They say so in that article. But engine bay may be covered in any mule.

    And they could be testing something else entirely. You never know. It behooves them to make sure to test many different technologies. I've learned its a lot of fun to wonder "what if", but we can only really know when Ferrari itself speaks.

    The "Bosch" film-camera-like sticker (or "Bosch hybrid system? ) is quite intriguing. I wish I could read the text below it ...

    I have some great news to tell you. I found this person on an Italian car forum. And they're having pretty much all the insider information going in there. He is similar to our friend 'Ferr9000'. Not sure if that's him there as well. :p But they know a whole lot. It's all in Italian and I've just signed up and awaiting the approval. Stay tuned. ;)

    Meanwhile...
    I know it's an old news (after https://www.thesupercarblog.com/mid-engine-ferrari-hybrid-spied-with-production-bodywork/), but ... it still remains a mystery. Supposedly it's the finished BB in disguise. Look at the rear - the car is white? Interesting rear window line, beautiful exhaust pipes ... I wonder about taillights and exact rear spoiler line. Also the mini-LaFerrari like, protruded front in the last picture.(source: youtu.be/PzUkyJv2FHk)

    It's two layers of camo in my opinion. Underneath the black clothing is the usual white camo used in every other car.

    You probably mean the protective white layer put on cars while driving before delivery?
    But that white part behind the end of roofline? I can't exactly imagine rear view window (engine bay cover) going from there. Is it a new aero part, a spoiler? ;)
    And do you guys think, the BB will be RWD or maybe with electric motors in the front axle?

    According to some latest rumors, the front axle should be electric driven.
